For anyone who may know, does anyone have data on the actual known dud rate of the USN Mk 15 surface ship torpedo? Or for that matter - all torpedoes?
I am interested in any data that shows hits and known failures...or a link to a reputable website that has that kind of data?

Thanks in advance,

 no idea, interested though

Well I can give some general intel on the us torpedoes here

Describes the related problems between the different models and why the resoution took so long.

Here is a good read on the performance and correctionals steps throughout the war

How did I do, did I get an A?

It was a good read, therefore I'll give you an A-  [;)]  Sorry, nothing is perfect and I believe that even the records available now will never supply the information we would really like to have.  It was very interesting though.

Thanks [:)]
